Here are the odds to win the NFC North, as they have been posted at VietBet:

- Minnesota Vikings +228
- Chicago Bears +1075
- Detroit Lions +1150
2016 NFL Betting Odds – Green Bay Packers
What the Green Bay Packers (-143) seem to be looking forward to is a fully healthy receiving corps. Jordy Nelson is back after tearing his ACL last pre-season, and it will be a huge plus, quite obviously, as he teams with Randall Cobb. What can this team get from Eddie Lacy? That is something of a question mark, but Lacy appears resolute in his desire to get in shape and stay there, and if the Pack can get a more imposing running game going, that will take some pressure off Aaron Rodgers, who got sacked 46 times. Green Bay was bothered by injuries to its secondary people, but still ranked sixth against the pass (allowing 228 yards a game). Clay Matthews is the defensive anchor, obviously, and coordinator Dom Capers should have a few new wrinkles to throw at the opposition.
2016 NFL Betting Odds – Minnesota Vikings
The Minnesota Vikings (+228 to win the division at VietBet) actually won the NFC North last season, and would have won in the first wild card round over Seattle had Blair Walsh been able to make a late field goal. The rise of this team came by way of a number of reasons, including the return of Adrian Peterson, additional maturity on the part of QB Teddy Bridgewater, the emergence of rookie sleeper Stefon Diggs at wide receiver, and an aggressive, quick defense that started to take on the personality of head coach Mike Zimmer, who had piloted the stop unit in Cincinnati for many years. Bridgewater needs more receiving talent at his disposal; Mike Wallace did not work out all that well as a downfield threat. So the Vikings drafted sure-handed Laquon Treadwell of Ole Miss in the first round, and he will step in and play a prominent role immediately.
2016 NFL Betting Odds – Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears (+1075 at VietBet) have some people to replace. And one of them might be irreplaceable. It can be said that under the tutelage of last year’s offensive coordinator, Adam Gase, Jay Cutler had the best season of his career, statistically speaking, as he registered his highest passer rating ever. Gase is now the head coach of the Miami Dolphins. But the guy whose departure opens up the most questions is Matt Forte, who was so valuable in his dual role of rusher and receiver out of the backfield. New talent wasn’t necessarily brought into the backfield, but head coach John Fox, who led this team to a 6-10 record, is hoping that the upgrades on the offensive line will help the ground game, as well as protect Cutler better. With linebackers Danny Trevathan, Jerrell Freeman and Leonard Floyd (the first-round pick from Georgia) added to the mix, this defense, which was 4th best in passing yards allowed, could be a lot better.
2016 NFL Betting Odds – Detroit Lions
There is a big hole in the offense with the Detroit Lions (+1150 to win at VietBet) and it is not going to be replaced anytime soon. Calvin Johnson, the future Hall of Fame receiver who posted huge numbers most of the time, has retired, and signing Marvin Jones, who played for the Bengals last year, is not going to fill the gap. This running game is a question mark, as Ameer Abdullah (597 yards as a rookie) has to make some significant strides. This defense, which was one of the league’s best two seasons ago, is a lot more ordinary now, so this is a project to say the least.
